Mist and mountain, before the form of the building
In the Z MIST design approach, slope, view, light and the rhythm of the seasons guide how the building is placed. The aim is not to cut the building off from its ground. The entry path, the terrace and the window each become part of arriving and staying.
This thinking has to reach the details: a place for wet clothes, an entrance that works in bad weather, a warm corner to sit in, and a clear relationship between inside and outside. A sense of place comes from these decisions, from an architectural response to the conditions of that particular site.
